I just come here for the novelty coffee mugs and their trenchant commentary on the little ironies of everyday life.

It is 59 degrees right now, and it is raining.

Tomorrow is more of the same, hopefully clearning out tomorrow e'en.

I do not believe I am ready for the time change.  It seems we only fell back November 5th, so we are springing forward after only after four months of standard time. 

I think the time change is awkward and has served no useful purpose for a long time.  Let's just pick a time and stick with it.

Like...supper time!

I have done nothing useful all day outside of picking up my mail and getting lunch at Third Generation.  Catfish, greens, lima beans and grits were my meal, with a tall cup of iced unsweetened tea.

Went to a surprise birthday party for a friend who is turning 70. Nice evening. The restaurant service was excellent. The food fine.

During the time we were there, the temperature dropped 20 degrees and the wind picked up. Windy and cooler all day tomorrow.

I think I need to reread the novel. It’s been since fifth grade, I think.

I love this verse from Carolyn Wells:

A tutor who tooted the flute
Tried to teach two young tooters to toot.
Said the two to the tutor,
“Is it harder to toot, or
To tutor two tooters to toot?”

Oh, and the power is back on at my house!

Were you at work all day where there was power?  If so, how did you know when the power went back on?

If it is known that the power will be off for two hours or more, they let everyone go for the rest of the day, even if the power does come back on later.

Voldemort is basically a middle school girl: he has a locket, a diary, a tiara, a ring, and is completely obsessed with a teenage boy.

So, after playing cards at my mom's (where I did not win ::) ), I drove through Taco Bell and got a Burrito Supreme.

They always ask if you want extra beef or sour cream, but the extra sour cream actually costs more than the extra beef! :o

I can almost buy an entire 8-ounce container of sour cream for what their "extra" sour cream costs...and it ain't a full 8 ounces!

Not as good as their no-longer-available Double Decker Taco Supreme, but still pretty good.
